Hey Seth, What are you asking for the Reeve by itself? $850, but I don't want to sell the sword until the scabbard is gone. Todd's in line ahead of you for just the sword. Thanks.

Since there is no hamon, a person can just polish and Scotch brite with impunity! I did that once with an old Windlass sword that had some discoloration working my way from 400 grit to 1200 grit, and it turned out great. I'm pretty hesitate to do anything to my Albions other than oil them.

I am not sure what that it. I haven't noticed it before. That photo was taken with sunlight coming in which shows a difference in color. I took some more photos in shade and sunlight showing the difference. photos.app.goo.gl/9QjELDY2PHr87TjFAThere was also a spot on the other side in the same area. I am the second owner so I don't know if something acidic got on the blade. I forgot the scabbard would also fit a Stamford. I would sell the scabbard for $800 + shipping. However, I would want to line up a buyer for the sword before splitting the couple. Some folks have asked. Here's the two spots in sun and out: Spot 1--the other stuff in the far left is just oil droplets.

Yes I can. I shipped to Germany recently. It was about twice the cost of shipping in the US.

I recently read the House of Blades Trilogy by Will Wight. It's a great fantasy series with some giant swords.

I got this satin blade Belmont as a shop special. This is an amazing knife. It is big but moves very fast. The handle ergos are excellent. Their aluminum slaps with leather wrap feel good in the hand. I also got a Vakra and a Sharkalope. I love kukri style blades, and the Vakra seems like it will be a great chopper. The Sharkalope is a fast and deadly short sword. Some others that I handled and really liked were the Zakasushi, D'Capitan companion, Traumahawk, and the Marauder.

I kind of understand that for the khopesh. It's got a pretty specific aesthetic that probably does clash with the zombie apocalypse setting. It would be funny if the mace was just a baseball bat, though. That would track for a zombie weapon. tiffany, (if I remember her name correctly) told me the mace had a lot of reverberation when smashing stuff. It was solid steel and had a Sauron vibe to its look. Found a picture of their display on their FB page: The retired blade rack was on the other side. And yes, the shake weight was there as well. LOL.

Aw man, they had a greatsword that didn't make it to production? Would have loved to see what that looked like. The great sword is still a prototype in testing which I took to mean it still may make it. The owner was pretty clear they didn't like how the khopesh (khopeshi?) turned out. I think the mace was a no go for sure too. I should have taken some pictures but I didn't think of it until I left.

I was in Missoula for work and stopped by Zombie Tools. They were super friendly and invited me in. They have a cool display with all their current models and other metalwork. They also have a display with all the retired models. You can handle them all.
I also saw proto-types and weapons that never made it into production like a great sword, several khopesh, and a mace. Best of all they had some "shop special" blades for sale at discounts due to minor cosmetic issues so I picked up a few.
So if you ever end up in Missoula, MT, I highly recommend you stop by.

I really like the M&P 22 compact. It was a great shooter w/ good ergonomics. I also really like the Sig P322.

I've had the CS, and I got the Windlass too. I sold the CS. I've never handled an original, but I really like the way the Windlass handles.
